I've been using this recipe for so long that I don't remember where it came from. I do remember that I'm asked to bake 3 pies every Thanksgiving. Two are for the dinner and the third one is for my sister's partner who demands a whole pie for himself.

Tips:

Use a mix of sweet and tart apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples.
Peel and slice your apples thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
Don't overcook your apples. You want them to be tender but still hold their shape.
Use a quality butterscotch pudding mix. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie.
Don't overmix your pie crust. Overmixing will make it tough.
Bake your pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
